A switch to a new lender at renewal is not a refinance. It carries no penalty, and the new lender usually covers the switch costs.
Lenders will typically hold a rate for you up to 120 days ahead of your renewal date, worth locking in early if you're shopping around.

Want a person to look at it?

These figures use one rate and general guidelines. A licensed mortgage agent can tell you which lenders would actually take your file, and what your renewal options looks like for you specifically.

Optional. Free either way. Nothing beyond this submission is stored, it goes to one licensed agent — not a list — and every rule this site uses is published.

What this number means

This compares the payment and remaining balance under your bank's offer against the same numbers at the rate available elsewhere, over the same term. The gap between the offered rate and the market rate drives almost all of it.
